May Rêveuses in Bloom

Here are today’s 13th-of-the-month pictures, taken (as always) on my phone, so you know the photo quality is awesome. (It occurs to me that I should perhaps carry around my actual camera on the 13th of every month, but then I wouldn’t have the excuse of a pitiful device to blame for my inept photography skills.)

Enjoy!

Perhaps you can’t see it, but my friend and co-worker Shannon has red toe nails. I caught her working. She hasn’t even read The Night Circus yet but dresses this way each 13th of the month subconsciously now. I think I’m starting to have an influence…muahahahaha!One of my students! Check out the cute red earrings.Close family friend Mona, using Tiny Beowulf and his red superhero backpack as a shield because she’s adorably camera-shy! (Trust me, he loved it.)And, of course, me: sleepy rêveuse because it’s mid-May and there’s way too much work to do yet before I can put this semester finally to bed. And then there’s the squishy red couch in Shannon’s office, too.And although this picture was not taken today, it features Tui, a writer and blogger I met at DFWCon this month. So much style! You can check our her blog at http://www.mentalmosaic.com/blog.

Of course! Thank you for playing along. 🙂 Feel free to send me a rêveuse picture for every 13th of the month if you wish. I usually send out some form of reminder a day or two before on FB and Twitter at least.
